Next Tuesday will see the clash of Premier League team Manchester United against Primera División’s Valencia. The two teams will meet on the pitch for a Champions League game hosted by the Red Devils. Manchester are seeking another victory after they defeated Young Boys with 3-0 in the first leg.
Valencia lost against Juventus in a game with 3 penalties. The Bats were one player ahead of Juventus after Cristiano Ronaldo’s red card but it was still obvious they are not ready to compete with top European clubs yet.

Both teams have met six times in Champions League games, all of which were at the group stages. The latest duel happened eight years ago. Manchester United won the first leg with 1-0 at Valencia’s home stadium and the second one ended in a draw (1:1).
Anderson and Chicharito were the scorers in these matches and only Chris Smalling is still in the current squad of Man United. As many as 5 out of 8 international clashes between the two teams have finished in draws – 3 of these were goalless and in the other 2 the result was 1-1. The Red Devils have 2 wins at Old Trafford and a single one away from home.
The only Valencia victory happened in 1982 in a UEFA Cup round. Jose Mourinho has a lot of problems to resolve as his team’s performance is too tentative. The Red Devils’ manager didn’t get the centre-backs he wanted during the transfer period and now some of his defenders are suffering from injuries.

Manchester United vs. Valencia CF Betting Tips

Phil Jones is available but Marcos Rojo picked up an injury and the results of his last fitness test will be decisive as to whether he will be allowed to start. Lukaku will have no chance in front if he does not get enough help from the attacking midfielders.
That’s the reason why Manchester United’s players don’t create many goal chances in their matches. In fact, there has been no clear style of playing since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. United are apparently still seeking themselves.
Valencia has not been performing very well in La Liga since the beginning of the season and have recorded 5 draws. Santi Mina is ruled out due to injury but Valencia has enough good players in attack to replace him. Most probably Rodrigo and Batshuayi will be featured in the starting eleven as Gameiro will come off the bench in the second half.
The visitors will try to stop United’s attacks in their half, waiting for the right moment to counter attack. The same tactics were introduced by Sevilla during the previous season when they removed United from the Champions League.

Manchester United vs. Valencia CF Prediction

Manchester United have been under-performing since the beginning of the month. Also, the scandals between Pogba and Mourinho are a factor to consider. Having all this in mind, it is very likely Red Devils will not have the will to win the match.

Marek — Tue, 02 Jan 2018 20:30:00 +0000

Manchester United broke their transfer record to sign a world class midfielder in the form of Paul Pogba in 2016. Last year, they splashed more cash to lure a defensive midfielder in the form of Nemanja Matic.
However, it seems that Jose Mourinho is still interested in strengthening his midfield department and reports are linking United with not one but two Spanish stars.
The players in discussion are Carlos Soler and Sergi Roberto and the duo have a combined worth of €120million.

According to Diario Gol, Manchester United have been monitoring the situation of Roberto, who has not yet agreed a new deal with Barca.
It is mentioned that the Red Devils not only want to activate the €40million release clause but would also double the wages to secure his signature. The Spanish source further claim that the decision rests with Sergi, who is naturally a midfielder but has mainly played as a right back for the Catalan giants.
On the other hand, as per Don Balon, Mourinho believes that Valencia’s Soler has the talent to be a hit in the Premier League and the Portuguese boss thinks that United must get him.
The 21-year-old midfielder, who has scored 1 goal in 15 games for the La Liga club this season, has got a contract until 2021 and his price is €80million.
The likes of Carrick and Fellaini will likely be gone come next summer and the above mentioned duo would be quality additions if Jose can lure them.

Manchester United have been linked with a move to sign Spanish international and Valencia midfielder Carlos Soler.
Reports (via Daily Mail) in the British media suggest that Mourinho is keen and the Red Devils are trying to secure his signing for next season for a fee worth 30 million pounds.
However, Deporte Valenciano have claimed that the above mentioned fee from the Old Trafford club will not be enough to secure the signature of the 20-year-old midfielder.

The Spanish source have claimed that Valencia would sell Soler but only if two conditions are met. Firstly, a club must activate the release clause in Soler’s contract which is worth €80million and then they would have to convince the player to join as well.
Deporte Valenciano state that Soler is from Valencia and he is living the dream playing for his hometown club and therefore, it could be hard for other clubs to convince him. However, if a club can convince him and pay €80million then the signing can be sealed.
Not to forget, Valencia are in top form at the moment and currently sit in 2nd place in the Spanish league, four points behind leaders Barcelona.
Soler has directly contributed in 5 goals in 9 league appearances this season. In your opinion, should Mourinho activate the release clause in Carlos’s contract to hire his services?

Zaryab — Fri, 06 Oct 2017 19:00:27 +0000

Since the departure of Javier Mascherano in 2010, Liverpool have not had a top quality defensive midfielder in their squad.
At the moment, captain Jordan Henderson is playing as a defensive midfielder but the England international is not a specialist play breaker.
In the summer transfer window, the Reds were linked with (via GdS) French international Kondogbia, however, the player eventually ended up joining Valencia on a season long loan.
Now, according to the latest reports going on in the media (TMW), Liverpool are once again interested in signing the 24-year-old star.

The Italian source have mentioned that Valencia have an option of signing him on a permanent deal for a fee of 25 million euros ($29million). If the Spanish club do not use the option then in such a scenario, Liverpool and Spurs are ready to enter the race to secure his signature.
Klopp has got a weak back line, which must be improved in the winter transfer window. Moreover, he needs a strong DM, who could provide a solid cover in front of the back four.
Liverpool’s defensive concerns have not been solved as yet, therefore, Jurgen should not wait for next summer and must sign a top DM and a CB in January.
